  • Stand with your feet wider than shoulder width and  torso bent forward to around 45 degrees. Keep your chest up and grab onto a kettle bell with both hands. This is your start position.
  • Pull the kettle bell up towards your stomach in a smooth motion by squeezing your shoulder blades back, keeping your chest up and back straight. Pause at the top and slowly lower the weight back to the starting position.
